Highlights

All currently enrolled students have had a chance to register for Spring 2003. Last year, the total FTE increased 3.9% after this point in the enrollment cycle. If a similar pattern is followed this year, we will enroll 4129 FTE.
The University is continuing the recent trend of enrolling fewer students who are taking heavier credit loads. In other words, the number of students needed to reach the FTE goals continues to fall. The total number of students is 4.0% lower this spring than last year at this time, but the FTE total is only down by 1.3%.
Our tuition revenue target for Spring 2003 will be about $7.9M. Last year, tuition revenues increased 5.4% after this time. If a similar pattern is followed this year, we will gross approximately $7.5M in tuition revenue this spring.
While we do not have a specific FTE target for spring terms, we usually expect to register about 90%-92% as many Full-time Equivalent Students in the spring as we did the prior fall. Our Fall 2002 FTE ended at 4,416 FTE. The projected 4129 FTE for the spring is 93.5% of 4416.
